Teckrez Inc. has announced the promotion of Heather Bush to chief financial officer, as well as the appointment of Chris Armstrong to technical account manager.
A multi-step continuous process has been developed to convert renewably sourced furfural to 1,5-Pentanediol (1,5-PDO), which is a low-cost renewable replacement for 1,6-HDO, a diol intermediate currently used to produce coatings, adhesives and plastics.
By incorporating a specialty amine-functional silane oligomer into existing waterborne silane pretreatments, the need for an elevated curing temperature is effectively eliminated, opening the door to this type of environmentally friendly technology to industries and markets that were previously restricted by this elevated-temperature curing requirement.
The focus of this article is to understand and evaluate the use of novel acrylated amine oligomers to address curing deficiencies in UV LED-cured systems.
Sirrus Inc., a developer of electron-deficient monomers and oligomers, has completed construction of a $2 million bench plant expansion to increase production of methylene malonate monomers and oligomers.
LM (low-migration) acrylate monomers and oligomers are designed for the formulation of UV-curable inks and coatings dedicated to indirect food contact applications.
Sartomer is launching a new range of low-migration acrylate monomers and oligomers specifically designed for the formulation of UV curable inks and coatings dedicated to indirect food contact applications.
This article demonstrates the equivalence of a simple calculation for crosslink density to more sophisticated methods developed by others. By virtue of the method's simplicity it has been easily extended to more complicated UV-curing systems and serves to easily determine the effects of prepolymer architecture on the crosslink density in the cured film.
